What is CSE Style?

The Council of Science Editors (CSE) Style Guide outlines different ways to cite sources in a scientific paper, including parenthentical references (similar to APA style) and numbererd citations. CSE style is the successor to the CBE (Council of Biology Editors) style. When citing sources for a paper, follow your instructor's preferences.

The most current copy of this manual will soon be in the Reference Collection in the University Library.
